Just Take a Class (non-degree program)

The non-degree program allows you to take one or more courses from our SEIS Course Catalogwithout committing to a graduate certificate or master's degree.

[Maximum of six courses on either a credit or audit basis.]

You may register and attend SEIS courses even if you do not intend to earn a graduate certificate or a master’s degree. Non-degree students must apply and be admitted before registering for classes.

If you have a bachelor’s degree*, the course credits you earned in your non-degree program may be used as a base toward completion of a GPS graduate certificate or master's degree program.

Students who do not have a bachelor’s degree will not be allowed to continue in a graduate certificate or master’s degree program.

Non-degree students may not take the following courses:SEIS 776, SEIS 777, SEIS 778, SEIS 790, SEIS 795

Program RequirementsStudents taking courses on a credit basis must maintain a grade point average of 2.7 or better. Audited courses must be completed with a grade of “satisfactory.” Audited courses cannot be applied toward a certificate or master’s degree unless they are retaken for graduate credit. Non-degree students may take a maximum of six courses on either a credit or audit basis.

Entrance Requirements
